Debris and twisted metal litter the street in front of the local Post Office following a violent robbery attempt during the early hours of the morning in San Ferdinando di Puglia, Italy, on November 30, 2025. A commando unit uses a stolen excavator to smash through the building's facade in an attempt to extract the ''Postamat'' ATM safe. The robbery fails following the intervention of the Carabinieri, though the criminals escape after blocking access roads with three-pronged tire-puncturing spikes and burning vehicles. The attack leaves the building structurally compromised.
